Talks Continue in Cruise-Holmes Divorce - No Sparks Flying Yet

 Posted on July 10,2012 in Child Custody

As they continue to hammer out a divorce settlement, Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise released a joint statement today.

"We are committed to working together as parents to accomplishing what is in our daughter Suri's best interests. We want to keep matters affecting our family private and express our respect for each other's commitment to each of our respective beliefs and support each other's roles as parents," read the statement to ABC News from their reps.

Sources close to the case tell ABC News that the focus is on Suri and that "both sides in the case have said from the beginning that she is their main concern."

Holmes, who filed for divorce from Cruise last week, is seeking sole custody of their six-year-old daughter, Suri.

In a case of art imitating life, the actress' next film role will be playing a single mom.

Next week, Holmes, 33, is scheduled to start production on her new film, "Molly," about a single mother and her daughter, according to People magazine. Holmes co-wrote and is co-producing the film.

Showbiz411.com, however, is reporting that the project is on hold for now.

Despite the divorce, Holmes, who recently taped a guest appearance on "Project Runway," has been keeping busy.

This last week, pictures poured in of Holmes and her daughter out and about in Manhattan enjoying ice-cream, a museum, popping into Whole Foods and visiting her attorney this weekend.
